Antique Coffee Pot, St. Clément, Emile Gallé, Libellule (Dragonfly)
This is an antique coffee pot from the Saint Clément factory, part of the "Libellule" (Dragonfly) series.
The "Libellule" series from the Saint Clément factory was designed by Emile Gallé, a master of Art Nouveau.
"Libellule" means "dragonfly" in French.
During the Art Nouveau period, natural motifs were often incorporated into decorative arts.
Its charm lies in its warm design, featuring hand-painted flowers and adorable insects, as if it popped out of a picture book.
Particularly striking are its distinctive form and beautiful handle design.
It's a coffee pot with a strong presence that looks like a work of art just by being placed on display.
As this is an antique item, please forgive any minor scratches or dirt.
Condition: There is one small chip on the rim, but it is not noticeable. Otherwise, there are no chips or cracks, and it is in very good condition for an antique.
Size: Approximately 20cm x 12cm, height 20cm
Period: Believed to have been manufactured around the late 19th century.
Given the "KG (Keller & Guérin)" mark, it is presumed to have been made after Emile Gallé left the Saint Clément factory.
